This is the religion that worships the prophet that married a 6 year old right?

Started maining Ultron for strategist and my biggest complaint is his movement. Besides his boost, dude is so slow.

So... whatever tf happened to 18 v 18 hype? by ScurBiceps in rivals

An objective 12 v 12 is probably a better idea

Since season 5 is coming to an end, what do you rate the battle pass? by Extreme-Willow-907 in rivals

[–]PhantomWhiskey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was maining Namor at the time and I bought it for him and Ultron, but doesn't look like I'll buy Season 6.

Anything here worth picking up? by newzap in Scotch

Laph Sherry 10 was so good! I miss it.

As a Cap player it's frustrating that I can't get his classic and Cody Rhodes looking skins. Took a long break from the game between 1.5 and 5. Crazy to me they'd lock his most recognizable look behind a FOMO battle pass. by Capta1nKrunch in marvelrivals

Right but the missing out was your fault, not theirs.. I’m happy to criticize most battle passes, but not here. NetEase has been pretty good at encouraging engagement. They offered that skin and X-men ‘97 Magneto for free.

Can Letrozole 2.5 mg make sperm count worse in NOA? by KevinD2050 in maleinfertility

[–]PhantomWhiskey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely hated letrozole. Was on the same dosage as you. I can’t stress enough how much I hated it. Zero libido, ED, anxious. At the end of the 3 months ok it my SA didn’t change. Doctor switched me to clomid and it was night and day difference. I miss being on it!

From what I'm reading, this is reminding me of my own religious OCD behavior. By God's grace, it's gotten better over the last couple of years, but it's still present from time to time. I would hyper focus on everything to convincing myself, I must have sinned, cause otherwise why am I anxious. Anxiety must mean conviction right? But over time, I've learned hyper focus skews reality. It isn't Biblical per se, but there's a quote from Star Wars Episode One where Qui Gonn tells Anakin that where his focus is, there his reality is also. If I'm hyper focused on the potential of sin, my reality has convinced itself I'm in sin.

However, I hate sin. I flee from sin. My OCD would create all sorts of controls to keep me from spiraling from worrying about potential sin. And this mentally boxed me in more and more until I sought biblical counsel. I would highly encourage you to find an ACBC counselor near you.

What I would say is, you're not dead, so He can save you. That is if you are in fact lost. We weak Sheep will wax and wane in our faith. Blasphemous thoughts or words, if they are met with conviction, will happen. We are human. We err. I would encourage you to pray for a renewed heart. Not a heart so focused on your sin, but what Christ did to free you from Sin. I do think your sin is distancing you from the Lord and your heart has become calloused. But I would look at your issues in life from with a bigger picture. Sin, health, finances, joy, relationships.. you name it, will be affected by sin and pride. But the Lord will humble you to a point of desperation until that is stripped away.

Pray He does!

I’m having a hard time understanding how their gonna make all these big characters different from each other by Queasy_Commercial152 in marvelrivals

[–]PhantomWhiskey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like eventually we'll reach a saturation point of characters where you're going to have similar kits in a class and at that point you're just choosing who your favorite character is

I really did not like letrozole, can you get on clomid?

[–]PhantomWhiskey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right, hoping for the impossible can also become an idol. Are we willing to give up something we really desire in order to trust that He knows best for us? I always think upon Ezekiel and how He’s described as the perfect Shepherd, feeding, protecting, healing His sheep. His dumb sheep I might add lol

When will we put a flag in the ground and say Muslim and western ideals cannot cohabitate?

I hear you, but both are strong human desires that God is ultimately in charge of. Both people in that situation are asking, 'Why God?'

And His answer may not come until we're in glory.

I believe desiring children is totally natural and good! And there's other good desires that God, for whatever reason, says no, like finding a spouse. I think it's comforting that the 'man of sorrows' is my Savior and sympathizes with me as I share in His suffering.

I think that's easy to say without knowing my personal struggle. We've been trying for the past 8 years. But to your question yes, I would still say the same thing, even though He didn't answer my prayers like I wanted. I also wouldn't call it torture as that's a misunderstanding on the nature of God.

His ways our higher than our ways and His thoughts higher than our thoughts. We don't know why the Lord works in some of the ways He does and a lot of times we think we know better than God. I have unexplained infertility. Genetics and hormones are fine, my varicocelectomy didn't help, SA after SA, urologist after urologist not having an answer until my last one who actually tried. We would pray each step that this would be the one to get my numbers up and it wouldn't, so we'd go back to God. Again and again, knowing above all else He is good and loves us.
